    Multidisciplinary artist working across painting, photography, and mixed media. My practice is rooted in texture and sensory experience, inviting viewers beyond observation into touch and emotional connection.

Often working en plein air I create dynamic & colourful compositions. I'm inspired by abstract expressionism with rapid expressive mark making & striking colours of Fauvism.

    I am a neurobiologist by day and artist by night. I explore various topics directly impacting me like the emotional impact of chronic pain, the nature, and the science around me. I mainly use charcoal as a medium of artistic expression to empower the dark and messiness of charcoal representing my vision.
